lyrics

<verse>
Celia come with as I take my leave
We'll not be followed
Run away with me and we'll be free
In Arden Forest
(some) fresh country air's all we truly need
To recover
(My) pride fell with my fortunes (so it seems)
As you like it
...As you like it

<chorus>
Here in the woods
I've met a fool, so motley
He told me
"All the world is a stage" and we're just playing
The forest is free
Not like back home, such envy
This is our life and we'll find the good in every-

<verse>
-thing goes topsy turvy in my head
As I grasp this:
Infant, schoolboy, lover, soldier, then
Second childhood
Blow, blow thy winter wind
Men ungrateful
They say no jewel is like me Rosalind
As you like it
...As you like it

<chorus>

<bridge>
-thing
Don't fall in love with me
For I am falser than vows made in wine

Orlando
So lovely
So selfless
So noble

You'll love me
Orlando

It was a lover and his lass,
With a hey, and a ho, and a hey nonino,
That o'er the green cornfield did pass,
In the spring time, the only pretty ring time,
When birds do sing, hey ding a ding, ding;
Sweet lovers love the spring.

Here comes a pair of very strange beasts,
which in all tongues are called fools.
